Boynton firefighters host chili cook-off, fishing tournament Saturday

The Boynton Beach Firefighters Benevolent Association is having a fishing and chili contest this Saturday.

It’s their ninth contest and will be held at the Boynton Beach Boat Club Park at 2010 N. Federal Highway.

Thursday is the deadline for the public to enter into both the chili cook-off and the fishing tournament.

The event starts at noon and ends at 6 p.m.

“Throughout the day they have people breeze through and wait for the fishermen to come in,” said Jim Witt, tournament spokesman. “Then they have judging of chili and also give out awards for fishing tournament.”

Witt didn’t know for sure, but thought there are currently more than 20 chili teams and about 85 boats.

“We’re probably looking at the biggest year ever both ways,” said Jim Witt.

For those who want to enter into the chili contest, it’s $25 per team.
